Doesn't make much sense though because the lower rate is the least restrictive but that's the way the rules are written.
What if you book the same (refundable) rate at the ICHG website and the getaroom still beats it?

The CP LAX ist not a terrible hotel. It's far away from a prestigious property but I always had a good stay there. It's not worse than the Marriott or the Westin. Even the Hilton rooms are a mess. The only useful hotels around LAX seem to be the SPG properties Sheraton and even the 4 Points for the rates they charge. That being said: The Entertainment Card Rate at the Crowne Plaza is pretty good. And on Priceline it used to be available for 48$ all in. Seems like those days are over though (I hope they return but dont hold my breath).
